Jin Ran sat on the window sill in a chair, looking at the bright moon hanging high in the night, subconsciously devouring his fingertips, stunned.

These days, her life is like a wandering ghost, not only is her work and rest all messed up, but even her mind and reason are messed up. She missed Qingyuan's smile, missed his every move--- and the stubbornness in her heart was like a tyrant who would not allow anyone to refute, blocking all thoughts of wanting Ling Yue's self-esteem to see him.

Her soul was not guarded, and even the queen mother noticed it, but she didn't say anything, only said lightly that she had been wrong for twenty years, and the next life was handed back to her to decide.

After living for 20 years, I realized for the first time that I was cowardly, and when I encountered difficulties, I would passively want to escape, escape everything, but I couldn't escape the initiator--- her heart that had already throbbed.

Sighing, Jin Ran got up and walked back to the mirror table, took off the scarf that pulled the bun, and the black hair was draped down, but it only reached the shoulder, the length that an average man should have. The depressed mood can't be said to be resentful or sad, but he picked up the ends of his hair and was distracted, and he didn't even realize it when another figure appeared behind him in the mirror.

Qingyuan just reclined on the seat she had just sat in to look at her, and found that she had lost weight, not haggard but delicate. So thin, what is the convincing power of pretending to be a man? Once you don't know how to take care of yourself. Qingyuan chattered unhappily in his heart, but his eyes looking at Jin Ran were full of deep affection, and he was reluctant to look away.

"Why are you here?" Jin Ran raised her head, just in time to meet Qingyuan's deep eyes in the mirror, and the words revealed in those eyes made her heart shake fiercely, and she quickly flushed her face.

"It's been a long time coming." Qingyuan slowly approached her, with a faint but warm smile, and never looked away: "I don't have any alertness, how can I protect myself?" "I really have to thank her for her negligence, otherwise I'm afraid I'll let her escape before she even sets foot in Qinghun Palace.

Seeing him approaching, Jin Ran hurriedly got up and retreated step by step, circling around the coffee table placed in the room, trying to pull out a reassuring distance. Seeing him approaching step by step with that handsome smile, his nervous fingertips turned cold.

"Why are you hiding from me?" Qingyuan asked in a low voice.

There was a seductive sadness in his voice that made her want to run towards him. No way! Don't forget that she is the crown prince! The reason in her heart stopped her. Jin Ran bit his lower lip tightly and took a few deep breaths before he spoke calmly enough.

"It's late at night, Brother Qingyuan, please go back." Jin Ran turned his head away and didn't want to look at him.

"Brother Qingyuan?" Qingyuan laughed angrily, her indifference stabbed him deeply. "I don't think that after that night, you can still call me Brother Qingyuan, Miss Jin."

His words shocked her heart, and Jin Ran raised her head and looked at Qingyuan with a raging anger in her eyes.

"You're following me!" When she was in Xie Weitang, she decided that something was wrong with him, it turned out that it was because she found out her identity.

Regarding Jin Ran's accusation, Qingyuan just raised his eyebrows and shrugged his shoulders, smiling indifferently, which was tantamount to acquiescence.

"I'd rather focus on the 'point' than on what you call you." Qingyuan looked at her presumptuously, and his voice was low: "Why have you been avoiding me?" Could it be that I'm not doing well? But I remember that your reaction was not like that---"

"There's not much to say." Jin Ran's face flushed, and he hurriedly interrupted his words, afraid that he would say more taboo words again, seeing that the door was close at hand, he was about to rush out of the door, but he didn't expect Qingyuan to be faster than her, and a crying inconvenience came between her and the door---

"Do you think I'm going to be stupid enough to let you escape again?" Qingyuan lowered his head and whispered in her ear, smirking smugly.

Jin Ran saw that his efforts were in vain, so he quieted down. The breath in her ears reminded her of ---

"How long are you going to hide from me? How long are you going to torture me? Do you know how to torture yourself these days? I hope that the physical fatigue will make me forget the suffering in my heart, but I find that the suffering is deeply rooted and cannot disappear--- I want to see you. ”

Jin Ran's nose was sour, and her eyes were red, why wasn't she? The remorse in her heart also gnawed her body, and she never hated her life experience, except now. She hated it so much, hated that her title of prince made her unable to be herself, and she couldn't bravely face this emotion that made her heartbroken.

Gritting his teeth, Jin Ran bent his elbow back and took advantage of his dodge to break free from his grip.

"A mature man is not weak and dependent like a child." Jin Ran said coldly behind his back, his voice was cold and ruthless, but if Qingyuan turned her body, he would find that her pale face was already covered with tears. "That night, it was just my momentary negligence that I fell into someone else's trick, thanks to the rescue, thank you, late at night, please go back!" After finishing speaking, Jin Ran bit his lower lip tightly and didn't dare to speak again, for fear that the sobbing sound that accidentally overflowed would make Qingyuan hear.

"Thank you?" Qingyuan looked at her thin figure and said with a mocking smile: "That's it? ”

"Or else? Tomorrow, I will ask the palace maid to give a gift to the Qingli Palace as a thank you gift. Jin Ran kept struggling in his heart, tearing his heart to pieces, and only then did he have enough coldness to spit out these hurtful words.

"Haha!" Qingyuan was furious, Yang Tian sneered, and wanted to turn her body to see how she could say such a thing against her will, but found that her shoulders kept trembling, her heart softened, and her hand that was in the air was slowly withdrawn.

He understands her situation, and he understands the contradictions in her heart, so why bother with it? Love makes people blind, and even the thoughts that were originally sorted out will be blurred. Knowing that he couldn't do it and resolutely doing it, Qingyuan hooked the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly, laughing at his knowingly committing a crime.

"I'll go back, I'll give you space, give you time to think about it, this is my concession, but don't hide from me anymore, people's patience is limited." Qingyuan stared at Jin Ran affectionately, and returned to his frivolous appearance when he left. "Tomorrow I wait for your thank you, I look forward to it, don't forget!"

After clearing away, the originally small space suddenly became empty, and only his grassland breath rippled in the air.

His thoughtfulness, his understanding, made her even more unbearable.

The shadow of the candle reflects the sad side face of kneeling on the ground, hiding his face and sobbing, until the core is extinguished.

－－－

Bursts of coquettish laughter echoed in Qingqi Palace, clearly visible---

There was a man and a woman in the room---

"Silence, do you want people to find out that we can't do it?" The man panicked and hurriedly reached out to cover the woman's mouth. Seeing that he didn't attract attention, he put down his hand and sighed.

"What are you afraid of!" The woman brushed away the scattered strands of hair on her face with a look of displeasure. "Those palace maids were sent away by me early, so what are you worried about!"

"You can't say that! Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, if people find out at this time, will we still have a life? The plan that has been in the works for many years is over! ”

"I didn't expect our dignified uncle Li Yuanqiao to be so daring." Concubine Xiu sneered.

"When are you going to tell Shu'er?" As soon as he heard this, Li Yuanqiao said anxiously: "It's time for him to change his sex to Li, it's unpleasant to hear him call that old turtle father emperor all the time." ”

That's how men are!

"What's the hurry? The emperor's brother is not dead yet, now is not the time, now he has to massage harder and let him change the prince to Jin Shu, when the time comes, as soon as he dies, the world will be ours, hehe---" Concubine Xiu smiled hideously, and there was a ruthlessness in her eyes that was blinded by power and profit.
